And how does this play together with physical memory hotplug?
Jan
Well, it's reading the physical memory size using the xc.physinfo() call
so if this is handled correctly by hypervisor (since this basically
issues a hypercall) then it should be working fine.
Meaning the tools would auto-adjust maxmem_kb' for Dom0 when
new memory got added? I can't see where that happens.
Jan
It's all based on xc.physinfo() call which is basically a hypercall. If
there's a valid value coming from the hypervisor then it would be
working fine.
You can see the call is there always on this line of my patch:
+ total_mem = int(xc.physinfo()['total_memory'])
If this is handled correctly by hypervisor then we're good in user-space
as can be seen in tools/python/xen/lowlevel/xc/xc.c and
tools/libxl/libxl.c where call to tools/libxc/xc_misc.c:xc_physinfo()
resides.
